I didn't intend to be away for quite so long! But after driving 2 days for a more-than-worth-it Thanksgiving with family back home in Texas, we returned to quickly became preoccupied with sick kids, custom journals and, well, life. Plus a broken camera makes blogging a bit tricky, but I still have my phone! ...Oh, wait, yeah, the lens on the camera phone is cracked now, too. Very tricky. But I have been busily working. Even dipping into my journal bit by bit, though still not as at home in its pages as usual. But I will persevere.
Because I am working on new things! Pretty things! Some you will see in my Etsy shop shortly, others just for fun. Like these fabric beads that I just had to spend an afternoon making. Just in case I needed them. Until then, they are lovely in my Andy Warhol commemorative soup can. And making me a little hungry.
Yep, busy, busy. But you will have to be content with a sneak peek for just a little longer. Until I figure out how to get some real pictures. I mean, what's a blog post without pictures?! Blog suicide that's what! Yes, very tricky, indeed.
So, bear with me a little longer, won't you? I've got lots to show you and some fun stuff planned---including a giveaway! You know, a little pre-Christmas gifty. You won't want to miss that! Not to mention sparkly things! And feathers! And beads! You can't get much better than that in my book. Especially feathers.
Sparkly things, feathers and beads oh my!!! Btw LOVE the beads, super pretty!!! Cant wait to see what you do with them!

I agree. The pictures look great to me! (and the beads). How fun! I think you inspired me to get busy painting tomorrow. Christmas gifts DO have to be finished in two weeks. yikes

Your beads are a colorful and sweet delight, if they were cookies they'd be too pretty to eat; they look awesome in the soup can. I have one just like it in my cabinet. Love those colors together. I'm glad I stopped by to visit; nothing better than a wee bit of inspiration to get my creative engines sputtering to life.
